Eleven months later...

Well, it's eleven months since the University of Westminster's 23 Things programme started and on Thing 16 we are drawing things to a close. In this final 23 Things post, I'd like to take some time to reflect on the new tools I have had the opportunity to explore since last August, and revisit some of my favourites, and say which of the technologies I will not be using again.

My favourites
My surprise favourite discovered through the programme, and one I've used quite a bit in my subject blogs, is Letter James.

23 Things also inspired me to finally set up a Flickr account, which came in very handy for posting photos of my visit to Lund.

Not so keen on...
I found the podcast exercise slightly frustrating, same goes for Google sites.

To sum up, I think I would have enjoyed 23 Things more if it hadn't taken so long to complete. I lost enthusiasm for it due to having to wait so long between things and I watched in envy as the University of Warwick got though their programme in just a couple of months!
